Hi Fooks,

We are suffering lately from very strange problem: nodes API stuck and kibana gives timeout because of it while trying to get nodes list.  
Our setup:  
ES 1.6  
Kibana 4.1.1  
Logstash 1.5.1  
Both Kibana and logstash has local ES

6 data nodes with 64 GB of ram and 2TB data  
kibana node  
and about 14 indexers  
Data pipeline is kafka

There are no logs showing a problem or exception on any ES node. Also once kibana got node list it keeps working well and data is indexed well.

**curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/\_cat/nodes](http://localhost:9200/_cat/nodes)'** - stuck

but getting explicit node working well.

2015/08/05 05:07:15 [error] 1694#0: \*2397 upstream prematurely closed connection while reading response header from upstream, client: 213.57.81.114, server: kibana.localhost, request: "GET /elasticsearch/_nodes?_=1438751114353 HTTP/1.1", upstream: **"[http://127.0.0.1:5601/elasticsearch/](http://127.0.0.1:5601/elasticsearch/)_nodes?_=1438751114353"**, host: "kibana.eu.ec2ssa.info", referrer: "[http://kibana.eu.ec2ssa.info/](http://kibana.eu.ec2ssa.info/)"

Please help
